The list includes: Garlic-Parmesan Chicken Strips and Orange Chicken Strips at Flo’s V8 Cafe Poison Apple Churro at Churros near Goofy’s Sky School or Señor Buzz Churros Let’s open it up, shall we?

  3. There are a lot of special events in Disney World. Hello, Dreamers! Some of them are more prominent and obvious guests, such as after hours parties like Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Others though are quieter, like children having their Make-A-Wish trips and getting to take part in exclusive experiences, or one-day-only parades that celebrate select accomplishments. We just found out one of those special parades is on its way to Magic Kingdom THIS WEEK to celebrate something really amazing! This one-time parade will take place this coming Thursday, August 29th at 1:30PM. If you’re in the parks and find yourself in the area, be sure to stop for a moment and cheer on these young athletes and celebrate their accomplishments with them! More Recent Magic Kingdom News!

  4. ‘Tis the season for many limited-time treats! Magic Kingdom Starting in August and running through the end of the year, we get dozens upon dozens of seasonal treats in Disney World. With Halloween, Christmas, and a host of other holidays throughout those few months, it seems like there’s always something new to try. And if you’re on the hunt for a limited-time offering in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, then we’ve got you covered! Now available at Woody’s Lunch Box in Toy Story Land is the Pumpkin Lunch Box Tart. This treat looks very similar to other Halloween Lunch Box Tarts we’ve seen in the past, but is it worth snagging? Often, the Lunch Box Tarts at this restaurant can be dry and disappointing. But we’re going to give it a go! Pumpkin Lunch Box Tart It’s a pumpkin pie-filled pastry tart with marshmallow fondant, candy corn, and Halloween sprinkles on top for $4.79. The pumpkin flavor kinda reminded us of canned pumpkin, but it had a little bit of sweetness mixed in from the fondant on top. It’s very Halloween-ish! It was surprisingly soft and the sugary flavors worked nicely with the pumpkin and the pastry. You’ll need to like sweet treats to enjoy this, but we definitely thought it was one of the better Lunch Box Tarts from this location! inside the pastry We’ll be on the lookout for more Halloween snacks coming soon in Hollywood Studios.

  7. It may be time to change your EPCOT game plan. EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival The 2024 EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival kicks off on August 29th, and longtime festival-goers are already pouring over the list of booths and entertainment this year to plan their festival experience. However, it might be wise to keep in mind that the festival is going to look a wee bit different than in years past. The heart of the Food and Wine Festival will always be the food booths spread throughout the park. At these booths, you will find food and drinks from around the World. Each booth offers unique bites and oftentimes desserts along with beer, wine, or a cocktail! Nitro Cake Pop at the 2023 Food and Wine Festival In previous years, most of these booths have been centered around the World Showcase. In fact, this has led many to skip the front of the park entirely and spend their festival day entirely in World Showcase. However, things are bit different in 2024. Swirled Showcase This year, there are several new and revamped returning locations spread out through World Celebration, World Discovery, and World Nature (AKA the three neighborhoods that make up the former Future World). These include two booths in the new Communicore Hall (Macatizers and the Festival Favorites Menu), Coastal Eats near Mission Space, The Fry Basket and Flavors From Fire near Refreshment Station, and Brew-Wings Lab at the Odyssey. EPCOT’s CommuniCore Hall In addition, Sunshine Seasons and Connections Eatery will also feature some festival-exclusive offerings. Sunshine Seasons If your usual plan for the Food and Wine Festival is to head straight to World Showcase, you’re going to miss a TON! So, we suggest switching up that game plan. We have all of the booths and menus on our sites. So you can plan ahead and figure out which booths you want to hit. Check out a FULL LIST of the booths HERE! We will also be reporting LIVE from the festival. So you will be able to follow along here and on our socials. On top of all of that, we will released our annual BEST of the FEST so you know exactly what is worth your time in money. All of this should help you plan out what booths you need to hit and will help you make sure you don’t miss something special that isn’t in World Showcase. Stay tuned to DFB for further Food and Wine updates. Your FOOL-PROOF EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Game Plan IT'S WINE & DINE TIME! Food & Wine Festival can be a bummer. You stand in line waiting for what looks like the perfect treat, and it's a bust. But fear not, dear friends, we compiled EVERYTHING you need (and the things to avoid!) to plan the ULTIMATE EPCOT Food & Wine Festival experience. If you're planning a day or a week at the festival, we've got every performance, activity, and tasty nosh detailed out so you can make the most of your time and money.

  8. We get quite a bit of unintentional exercise in the Disney parks. Disneyland From the speed walking at rope drop to the sometimes ridiculous stretches we have to do to get on and off rides to the 15,000-step days when you’re in the park from open to close, you’re definitely getting a bit of a workout in during your Disney vacation. However, if you want to be even more intentional about your Disney exercise, you can sign up to do a runDisney race in the parks. And there’s a NEW one coming to Disneyland Resort soon! On September 5th-8th, 2024, Disneyland Resort will host its first-ever Disneyland Halloween Half Marathon Weekend. Since we’re only a few weeks out, Disney has released a sneak peek at the race weekend merchandise! ©Disney To purchase these items, those participating in the races can visit the runDisney Health & Fitness Expo throughout the weekend to shop the collection. The whole collection is inspired by the Halloween season, with nods to various popular spooky Disney characters! ©Disney The shirts for the races feature characters like Chip ‘n’ Dale, the hitchhiking ghosts from Haunted Mansion, and Minnie, Daisy, and Clarabelle Cow dressed as the Sanderson sisters from Hocus Pocus. ©Disney If you want something to keep you warm, you can also check out the Nightmare Before Christmas-inspired jacket. It has Zero on the back! ©Disney And of course, it wouldn’t be a collection without some Minnie ears! This pair has a Disney Halloween character pattern on the front with a spiderweb bow, then the race weekend logo on the back. ©Disney The runDisney Health & Fitness Expo will be available at the Disneyland Hotel during select times throughout the weekend. The open times are as follows: Thursday, September 5th, 2024: 10AM–8PM Friday, September 6th, 2024: 12PM–8PM Saturday, September 7th, 2024: 10AM-4PM ©Disney If you want to shop the merchandise on the first day, you’ll need to join the virtual queue in the Disneyland app. Virtual queue will be the only way to shop the merchandise collection on the first day of the expo and the queue will be used as needed throughout the rest of the weekend. ©Disney We have a feeling some of these items are going to be pretty popular, like those ears or the Halloween Half Marathon Weekend Loungefly backpack! There will also be a new Corkcicle design available for purchase. ©Disney And of course, Disney couldn’t leave out the Magic Key holders! If you have a Disneyland Resort Magic Key, you can check out the exclusive race weekend shirt. ©Disney We’ll be on the lookout for more updates on the race weekend, so stay tuned to DFB for the latest!

  9. Somehow, despite all odds, I’ve managed to make going to Disney World part of my job. Hi, Walt! I know just how fortunate I am to be a member of the self-proclaimed Theme Park Journalist club — but you can’t tell me that driving between Tampa and Orlando on I4 regularly isn’t hell on earth. Still, I do it because I love that silly little mouse so much. Okay, that, and a whole lot more. Here’s what makes driving nearly two hours to Disney World every month worth it. As an editor and writer here at DFB, I don’t spend nearly as much time in the parks as our reporters do, but since I’m lucky enough to have an Annual Pass and live near Tampa — I make it my business to go at least once a month. You know, for “work.” You’ll often catch me there two or three times per month, depending on how much patience I have to deal with both Tampa and Orlando traffic on any given day. Spoiler: it’s not a lot. But, those Disney World gates just keep pulling me back in, so I put on a playlist or the latest episode of Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend and hop in the car. Despite the sometimes arduous journey, here’s what makes it all worth it. Shakin’ Jamaican Cold Brew from Joffrey’s Let me sing you the praises of one of the BEST cold brews in the game anywhere, but especially at Disney World. Joffrey’s Shakin’ Jamaican Cold Brew is described as “a delicious island-inspired cold brew coffee with hints of caramel and vanilla, served over ice.” You can choose to add vanilla, caramel, Irish cream, or hazelnut syrup for an added charge, but I like mine straight-up. I’m typically not a flavored coffee gal, but I’ll do some pretty shady things for a Shakin’ Jamaican. Joffrey’s Shakin’ Jamaican Cold Brew It’s a cold brew made from 100% Arabica beans that are slowly blended with smooth caramel, rich vanilla, and tasty coffee liqueur flavor, and it’s not sweet unless you decide to put syrup in it. And, I know what you’re thinking. “Sam, isn’t there a Joffrey’s IN Tampa? And can’t you also buy canned Shakin’ Jamaican to have at home?” Shhh. Just let me live. Cheeseburger Pods from Satu’li Canteen If you’re seeing a pattern in that most of my reasons involve food, you would be right. I mean, I do work for Disney Food Blog so are you really surprised? Anyway, if you’re a person who likes burgers and hasn’t ventured over to Satu’li Canteen at Animal Kingdom to get the Cheeseburger Pods yet, you need to go before I beat you there and eat all the soft, pillowy bao buns they have. Cheeseburger Pods at Satu’li Canteen What is a Cheeseburger Pod, you ask? It’s a delicious little bundle of joy — a bao bun. Cheeseburger Pods are stuffed with ground beef, ketchup, mustard, pickle, and cheddar cheese. Word on the street is that it’s an old family recipe from Imagineer Joe Rohde, and I’d just like to take this opportunity to publicly thank Joe Rohde for sharing this creation with us. Imagine the taste of a McDonald’s cheeseburger combined with a fluffy bao bun. Dang it, now I want Cheeseburger Pods. Ngumu Jungle Juice Over at the Dawa Bar in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, you can get your hands on Ngumu Jungle Juice. It’s essentially a boozy POG juice — and it is deliciously dangerous. POG Juice is a truly delightful drink found at several restaurants around Disney World — “POG” stands for Passion Fruit, Orange, and Guava, but the Ngumu Jungle Juice takes POG to a whole new level. Ngumu Jungle Juice This cocktail is made with Snow Leopard Vodka, Bols Peach Schnapps, and POG juice. It’s fruity and sweet, but still a bit tart from the fruit juices and makes for an excellent “walking around” drink while you’re exploring Animal Kingdom. Might I suggest grabbing one and taking a stroll around the Tree of Life? And, if you plan on going back for more — tip your bartenders well at the beginning and they may even hook you up from time to time. Living with the Land If you ask me what my favorite ride is at Disney World, my answer will likely change based on any given day. Pirates of the Caribbean and the Haunted Mansion will forever have my heart, but as I’ve gotten older I really appreciate the uniqueness and practicality of Living with the Land at EPCOT. This serene boat ride through the Land’s greenhouses is a true respite from the chaos of the parks — and something I always look forward to on EPCOT trips. Living with the Land I even considered walking down the aisle to the pan flute song from the ride at my wedding but went with a Tom Petty song instead. But, I did do the Behind the Seeds tour of Living with the Land for my 30th birthday and I highly recommend it to anyone who is a plant lover or just wants to go behind the scenes of this ride! Nostalgia Is a Heck of a Drug Being a Native Florida Woman, Disney World kinda runs in my veins. I grew up going to the parks with my family (my favorite trip was when we stayed at Wilderness Lodge and I became obsessed with Walt’s Chili for some reason???) and later went on plenty of school field trips (shoutout to Mrs. Englert and Mrs. Olson) and sang as part of the choir during the Candlelight Processional at EPCOT with my high school. So, when people say that Disney World is like a second home — it’s things like this that make it actually true. Main Street, U.S.A. Being able to visit Disney World so frequently growing up and still going to the parks so often as an adult is a privilege — and one I don’t take lightly. Let’s be real, though, nostalgia really is a heck of a drug — why else would I deal with scorching temperatures, massive crowds, long waits, and an even longer drive? The answer is simple: because I love it. And I really, really, really, really love cheeseburger pods. Cheeseburger Pods at Satu’li Canteen Of course, what makes this (relatively painless, truthfully) journey worth it for me certainly isn’t going to be what makes it worth it for you — so don’t yuck my yum! It’s often the little things, the moments that you can’t plan for or predict that become the most memorable when you’re at Disney World. No matter when you’re heading to the parks next, we’ll continue to bring you the latest tips and updates from Disney World — so stay tuned to Disney Food Blog for more!

  10. You never know when you might spot a celebrity or two in Disney World! Hi, Walt! Stars, they’re just like us — and some of them love the Disney parks just as much as we do. We’ve been seeing more and more celebs make their way to the Most Magical Place on Earth and honestly, we don’t blame them! A popular actor and musician just visited Disney World and his favorite new ride makes a whole lot of sense. In the caption of the post, Leto said, “PS this ride goes pretty hard has anyone tried it?” Uh, YES, Jared. We have tried it — and we love it, too! In addition to Jared Leto, Greta Lee, Evan Peters, Hasan Minhaj, Jodie Turner-Smith, Arturo Castro, Cameron Monaghan, and Gillian Anderson have all signed on to be in TRON: Ares. ©Deadline The film began production in January in Vancouver, and is slated for a 2025 theatrical release — so it looks like we’ll have to wait a bit longer to see Leto as the star of TRON: Ares. TRON Lightcycle / Run at night The Disney sci-fi franchise films began in 1982 with Jeff Bridges starring in the first installment. The next movie (Tron: Legacy) was finished in 2010, starring Bridges, Garret Hedlund, and Olivia Wilde. The script for the new film is being written by Jesse Wigutow with Sean Bailey and Sam Dickerman as executive producers and Justin Springer, Leto, Jeffrey Silver, and Leto’s Paradox partner Emma Ludbrook as producers. Daft Punk composed the soundtrack for TRON: Legacy ©Disney You just never know who might be walking around Disney World the next time you’re there!

  13. It’s that time again… EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival Every year, a massive change ripples through EPCOT that fundamentally alters how to approach a day at the park: The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival. The litany of special events and offerings offered by the crowds they draw – – along with the crowds they draw – – makes the park a very different place than it is normally. Whether you’re a festival veteran or have never been, it’s best to bone up on all the ways EPCOT is about to change. When the 2024 EPCOT International Food begins on August 29th, there are three major things to be aware of: International Marketplaces The core element of the Food and Wine Festival are the food booths spread throughout the park. There are booths and marketplaces from a ton of different cultures. You can find all sorts of different dishes and desserts along with fine wine, craft beer, and so much more! You can see ALL the booths coming to the 2024 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival here! Japanese Christmas Punch Eat to the Beat Concert Series Another major part of the Food and Wine Festival is the Eat to the Beat concert series. Offered as part of the standard EPCOT admission ticket, this series features world-renowned musical artists performing several times a day during the festival at the America Gardens Theatre in World Showcase. New and returning artists this year include The Fray, Sugar Ray, Yellowcard, Tiffany, Sheila E., Joey Fatone, Hanson, Boys II Men, and Smash Mouth. The full schedule of performers can be found here. Eat to the Beat Sign Crowds While the food and drink offerings are fantastic, they also tend to draw in LARGE crowds. The festival will usually be especially crowded during its first week (August 19th-September 8th in 2024) as well as holiday weekends and the festival’s closing days. In addition, some of the larger concerts (we’re looking at you Hanson) have a tendency to draw even larger crowds on the days they’re performing. Food + Wine + Disney = Heaven! Whether you’ve been to the Food and Wine Festival before or this is your first time hearing about it, keep in mind that EPCOT is going to be drastically different than usual over the next few months. If you are going the first week of the festival, be prepared for larger crowds than usual. You could find yourself waiting in long lines for booths. So just be prepared for that. Weekends tends to be pretty crowded during festivals as well. It has also been a few months since the last festival, so we think locals and out of town guests alike a really itching for EPCOT to be back in festival mode. We will be LIVE from the festival reporting on all of the booths and new food. Be sure to stay tuned for our annual best of the fest so you know exactly what you need to try when you visit the festival! IT'S WINE & DINE TIME! Food & Wine Festival can be a bummer.

  15. It is almost here! The EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival is returning to EPCOT this week! 2023 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival We are eagerly counting down the days until EPCOT once again has a festival, as it has been festival-less all summer, but that is all about to change when the Food and Wine Festival returns on August 29th. We already have the complete list of booths and all the menus, and it has been making us hungry all week. We have been going to the Food and Wine Festival for 15 years, so we know a thing or two about festival strategy, and of course, we want to share our game changers with you! The Food and Wine Festival has so much to offer! You can snack and drink your way around EPCOT with over 25 Global Marketplace food booths. You can Eat to the Beat over in the America Gardens Theatre each night as different bands and artists take the stage. You can even participate in a cheese crawl and help find Remy around EPCOT, in Remy’s Hide and Squeak Scavenger Hunt. The EPCOT Food and Wine Festival There is so much to enjoy that you are probably asking yourself, “How can I do it all?” Well, we have some tips to help you make the most out of your visit to EPCOT during the Food and Wine Festival. The ONLY EPCOT Food & Wine Festival Guide You Need To Read in 2024 Enter EPCOT Using the Back Entrance Did you know that EPCOT has two different entrances? The front entrance is right by Spaceship Earth, and the back entrance is located between the France and the United Kingdom Pavilions. International Gateway The International Gateway, or in our official terms, “the back entrance,” is a great way to beat the crowds, especially during festival season. This entrance serves as an entrance to those using the Friendship Boats, taking the Skyliner, or staying at the EPCOT area hotels, but anyone can enter this way! International Gateway If you are looking to save time and get into the park quicker, we suggest entering through the back! These Are the BEST Hotels for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival in 2024 Visit EPCOT During the Week and Not Weekend It is no surprise that Disney World gets crowded on the weekends, which unfortunately can mean longer lines at attractions and longer lines at food booths. Avoid the crowds You don’t want to spend the majority of your Food and Wine day waiting in line; you want to spend it trying all the delicious food and drinks! If your trip allows for it, we highly suggest planning your EPCOT day to fall on a weekday, as crowds tend to be lower. Skip Opening and Closing Weekend So many people will be flocking to EPCOT this Thursday and through the weekend to be some of the first to visit EPCOT for the Food and Wine Festival. This means that we can expect EPCOT to be very crowded this first weekend and for food booth lines to be very long. Food and Wine Festival The same goes for the last weekend of the festival, as the festival ends on November 23rd. There will be people who are trying to get their favorite dishes and drinks one last time before EPCOT transitions into the International Festival of the Holidays on November 29th. Lines can get long on weekends Heed our warning, and avoid visiting EPCOT the first and last weekend of the Food and Wine Festival, if possible. Make a Game Plan Ahead of Time If you are like us, you may have already made your “Must Have” list for the Food and Wine Festival. If you have not, you may want to start creating yours. 2023 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Having a game plan ahead of time can make your Food and Wine Festival visit go smoother. This is because you are able to map out what booths you should visit and map out your day. It is also a great way to ensure everyone gets their pick of booths to try. Your FOOL-PROOF EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Game Plan You can start to create a game plan beforehand by checking out our blog. We have so many great Food and Wine Festival resources that can help you figure out and map out your day at the festival. Food and Wine Festival Banner 2023 A pro tip is that the My Disney Experience app actually has a digital copy of the festival passport, meaning that you can get your hands on a passport before you are even in the park! Go the Same Week as the Food and Wine Classic for TWO Festivals There is another festival that goes on at the same time as EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival, and it is located just behind EPCOT! EPCOT The Food and Wine Classic takes place at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin on November 15th and 16th. The event takes place between 5:30 PM-9:30 PM. Swan and Dolphin Food & Wine Classic That means if you choose to visit Disney World on November 15th and 16th, you can have the opportunity to visit two festivals! Visit Booths as Soon as They Open While EPCOT usually opens at 9 AM each day, the food booths do not open until a little later. Typically, booths will open around 11 AM, but sometimes they can open a little bit before that time. 2023 Hawaii Booth To take full advantage of all of the food booths, we suggest starting early and hitting up the food booths as soon as they open. This way, you will have more time to try more booths and hopefully beat some of the mid-day crowds.

  16. We go to Disney World every single day, so that means we’re eating quite a few meals in the parks. Magic Kingdom We’re often there for breakfast, lunch, and sometimes even dinner, and throughout those many meals, we’ve tried all KINDS of snacks. Some spots have risen to the top of our list for must-try eats in the parks, but others leave some things to be desired. And today, we’re here to tell you about a major breakfast problem! When it comes to eating breakfast in the Disney World parks, your options can be a bit limited. The Disney World hotels all offer various breakfast foods, but after you tap your ticket and walk into the theme parks, you’re fending for yourself. Chocolate-Hazelnut Banana Mickey Waffle There are plenty of delicious breakfast options to be found (like our beloved Gaston’s Tavern cinnamon roll), but the majority of them tend to trend on the sweet side. Pastries abound, but breakfast sandwiches are few and far between — and where they exist, they’re often rather disappointing. Gaston’s Tavern — Warm Cinnamon Roll But you know who we REALLY want to get in on that savory breakfast treat game? Joffrey’s! Starbucks is one of our go-to spots for a good breakfast sammie, but they get so busy in the mornings that it can be a pain to wait in line. Joffrey’s stands abound in the parks and they’re home to some yummy doughnuts and pastries…just think what they could create if they put their minds to savory treats! Joffrey’s at EPCOT We’d love Joffrey’s to offer a savory pastry (something with bacon and cheese?) or a croissant sandwich. Maybe even a bagel? (We’re not quite sure if that counts as savory but it’s less sweet.) There are so many possibilities! Their cookies are sooo good — can we get something savory? So that’s our formal plea to Joffrey’s! But for now, we’ll be enjoying our shortlist of favorite savory breakfast items in the parks. You can get breakfast totchos at both Woody’s Lunch Box in Hollywood Studios and Kusafiri Coffee Shop & Bakery in Animal Kingdom. Crêpes a Emporter in EPCOT offers savory galettes, and Les Halles nearby has some savory pastries and sandwiches as well. A few different snack stands throughout the parks offer breakfast sandwiches, and Yak & Yeti Local Foods Cafe has a vastly under appreciated breakfast menu. Breakfast Totchos So when you’re in the parks for breakfast during your next visit, make sure to share your favorite way to start the day with us! We’ll be on the lookout for more eats in Disney World so stay tuned. Click Here for Our List of Best Breakfasts in Magic Kingdom!

  19. We talk about rope dropping the Disney World parks quite a bit, but one of our favorite times to visit the parks is actually late at night! Hollywood Studios at Night From holiday parties to After Hours events to Extended Evening Hours, there are plenty of ways to enjoy Disney World once the parks have closed to regular guests. However, if you want to take advantage of these offerings, you’ll definitely need to plan in advance. They’re only available on select nights and sometimes, only certain attractions are available for you to experience! Extended Evening Hours are perhaps the easiest way to get extra time in the theme parks, as they typically happen twice a week. Guests staying at Disney World Deluxe hotels can enjoy a couple extra hours of park time in select parks on select dates after closing time. Extended Evening Hours sign Most often, we see Extended Evening Hours offered at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. However, soon, this perk will be returning to Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom on select nights as well. The Disney World calendar lists the dates when this perk is available, but if you’re interested in the available attractions during Extended Evening Hours, we have an important update for you. Tower of Terror A popular attraction has now been REMOVED from the list of available Extended Evening Hours offerings at Hollywood Studios! A few days ago, Muppet*Vision 3D was listed as one of the attractions that would be open during the later hours, but it has since been removed from that list. ©Disney This is particularly notable because there’s quite a bit of discourse surrounding Muppet*Vision 3D at the moment. During D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, Disney announced that a new Monsters, Inc. Land would be coming to Hollywood Studios. Since then, many have debated where the land will be located, and it seems that one of the possibilities is for it to replace Muppets Courtyard. Monsters Inc. Land Concept Art ©Disney Because of this, fans have been on the lookout for any evidence that the Muppets are in danger! There are alternative locations for the Monsters, Inc. Land, but since Disney hasn’t confirmed a specific spot, things are still up in the air. Muppet*Vision 3D We’ll be on the lookout for any more Muppet*Vision 3D news and we’ll keep an eye on its operating schedule!

  20. Hooray for Hollywood…Studios! Okay, so Hollywood Studios is a super fun park and we’ll admit that we sometimes prefer it over the other parks in Disney World. Hollywood Studios There’s just something special that happens when you step into Hollywood Studios and find yourself in old Hollywood with a very questionable hotel in the background (we hear the elevator keeps having problems), seeing a replica of Grauman’s Chinese Theatre right in front of you, complete with hand prints and autographs of some pretty famous people right in front. Then you can step INTO the movies, like Toy Story and Star Wars. However, there are some outright lies we keep hearing people tell about Hollywood Studios, and we’re about to bust those wide open! So here are the lies we always hear about Hollywood Studios. It’s a half-day park Okay, so maybe in the 1990s, you would have considered Hollywood Studios a half-day park. However, there is SO much to do there now that you absolutely need at least a full day to enjoy it if you are a Disney adult or traveling with older kids. Us Star Wars fans can literally spend a whole day in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge just taking in the details and playing some of the interactive games available in that land. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Then there’s Toy Story Land, which has some amazing entertainment (we’ll never NOT stop for the Green Army Drum Corps.), as well as some of our favorite Toy Story characters. Add those two lands to everything else going on in Hollywood Studios, and you’ve got MORE than enough to fill a day — or two — in Disney World. We will say though, if you are traveling with younger toddlers, there are very few attractions for them in Hollywood Studios. 50 AMAZING Things You Never Knew Were in Disney’s Hollywood Studios There’s nothing for kids It’s true that in the past, there weren’t a lot of attractions and experiences for kids in Hollywood Studios, but right now, there are TONS of things for older kids to do. Not only can they enjoy a breakfast at Hollywood & Vine with Disney Junior characters, but they can also enjoy Toy Story Land, which even has a great attraction, Alien Swirling Saucers, that’s perfect for the little ones. Alien Swirling Saucers Then there’s a Frozen Sing-Along, a musical retelling of Beauty and the Beast, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, and Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy. Plus kids are sure to love the new Monsters, Inc. land that’s coming to the park soon! We do miss the playground that used to be here because it was such a great place for the little to get out their energy. It’s Rare That Anything Surprises Me Anymore, but This Hollywood Studios Addition Made Me Smile There are no good places to eat Excuse us…what? As the Disney FOOD blog, we are the first to say THIS IS SUCH A LIE. Hollywood Studios has some of our favorite dining experiences. For example, where else can you eat at a 1950s style diner where you’ll get a serious talking to if you put your elbows on the table (yes, we love 50s Prime Time Cafe)? Not to mention, that diner has some of the best fried chicken we’ve ever had. We’re also HUGE fans of the Hollywood Brown Derby, which we STILL think is a super underrated Disney World restaurant. Hollywood Brown Derby is seriously underrated Then there’s Baseline Taphouse with some incredible snacks and draft beers on tap. Plus…hello… TOTCHOS from Woody’s Lunch Box is one of our absolute favorite lunches. We also will tell you to not sleep on ABC Commissary because this quick service spot went from zero to hero when it introduced a new menu in 2020. One of our all-time favorite snacks, the Carrot Cake Cookie, can be found at Trolley Car Cafe. Don’t ever tell us Hollywood Studios doesn’t have good food. We Found a BIG Clue About a NEW Restaurant Coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios “Andy’s coming” This myth has been going around for a while, but basically, it’s the idea that if you say “Andy’s coming!” around any of the Toy Story characters, they HAVE to drop to the ground and pretend to be inanimate toys. We don’t think this was ever true…but there IS an exception. Woody and Jessie Okay, so if you happen to dine at Roundup Rodeo BBQ, you will hear the words “Andy’s coming!” on the speaker. Guests are encouraged to freeze in position (and you’ll see Cast Members doing it, too), so Disney sort of made this myth into a reality…but it still doesn’t involve the actual characters. Disney Is Making a Viral and Controversial Trend Reality You should skip Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge unless you’re a Star Wars fan So, yes, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge was absolutely made with a ton of Easter eggs and details that only Star Wars fans might get, but at the same time, it’s immersive enough that even those who have never seen a Star Wars movie can enjoy it. It’s got that whole “planet in a galaxy far, far away” vibe that even those not well-versed in Star Wars can enjoy, not to mention some rides that are just fun even if you can’t pick out every single Star Wars reference. ANYONE can enjoy Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge There’s also this. Remember how we talked about good food in Hollywood Studios? Ronto Wraps from Ronto Roasters in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge are for EVERYONE, and you don’t have to love Star Wars to enjoy that snack. Then there’s the Cold Brew Black Caf that coffee drinkers can enjoy. Plus we love the popcorn mixes at Kat Saka’s Kettle. The Secret Proof That Disney’s NEW Monsters Inc. Land Has Been in Development for YEARS So the next time you visit Hollywood Studios, remember that some things you’ve been told about the park are absolutely wrong. So enjoy yourself, have fun, and we’ll see you soon in Hollywood…Studios, that is.  Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox! Click here to Subscribe! WE KNOW DISNEY.

  23. Big changes are coming to California Adventure. Red Trolley Car There were many major announcements made at the 2024 D23 Ultimate Fan event regarding Disney’s theme parks, including the confirmation that the Avengers E-Ticket attraction is finally coming to California Adventure. The new ride, dubbed Avengers Infinity Defense, will anchor an expansion to Avengers Campus that will also feature the Stark Flight Lab attraction, which will feature Robert Downey Jr. returning as Iron Man. However, this new construction may lead to the end of an old favorite. We can confirm that the construction of the Avengers attractions will lead to changes in several backstage areas of California Adventure, including the Red Car Trolley Barn, which is why the attraction will be discontinued at an as-yet-unannounced date in early 2025. The Red Car Trolley, based on the real trolley system that formerly served Los Angeles before itself being controversially removed in the mid-20th century, was built at California Adventure as part of the massive refurbishment Disney built at the park in the late 2000s/early 2010s. Red Car Trolley behind the Gates at Disney California Adventure Park Opening in 2012, the ride became a favorite of California Adventure fans thanks to its unique theming a placemaking. The ride, which according to Disney offers a “charming vintage trolley for a scenic ride through Buena Vista Street and Hollywood Land”, features stops at Buena Vista Street, Carthay Circle, Hollywood Boulevard, and Sunset Boulevard. There is the possibility that the Red Car Trolley could return once the new attractions are ready with new backstage infrastructure, similar to the way the Walt Disney World Railroad had been closed during the construction of TRON Lightcycle/Run, though that possibility seems remote. We’ll have to wait and see, but more information is expected to be released this winter. Red Car Trolley! Stay tuned to DFB for further updates on Disneyland’s construction.

  25. Disney dropped some HUGE park news at the beginning of August at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event and a lot of it was about new rides, new lands, and new expansions. Disney California Adventure For example, Villains Land and Cars rides were announced for Magic Kingdom in Disney World, as well as a new Monsters, Inc. land in Hollywood Studios. Disney also announced new Avatar and Marvel attractions coming to Disney California Adventure. However, Disney did NOT tell us when the new California Adventure attractions would be getting added to the park. But now, we know construction on the new Avengers Campus attractions will be starting sooner rather than later! During the D23 event in Anaheim, CA, Deadpool showed up to join Josh D’Amaro, Disney Experiences Chairman, on stage with several Marvel announcements. One of those was that Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure will be doubling in size and adding TWO new attractions to the Marvel-themed area. Avengers Campus ©Disney When Deadpool and D’Amaro made this announcement, they did not share WHEN these new attractions would be coming to the Avengers Campus nor even when construction would begin on them. But now we know construction will begin in early 2025! It was previously announced that we’d see work in 2025, but now we can expect it in the early months of next year. Avengers Campus When work begins, the backstage Red Car Trolley barn will need to be removed causing Disney to discontinue operation of the trolley attraction in early 2025. There was no word on if the trolley will come back after construction is complete. A specific date for the closure will be shared later this winter. Red Car Trolley! When the new attractions are completed, we’ll be able to ride Avengers Infinity Defense to try to stop Thanos from wreaking havoc among worlds as well as Stark Flight Lab where you can learn to fly like Tony Stark (a.k.a. Iron Man)! It will be an exciting expansion to the Avengers Campus and the world of Marvel at Disney California Adventure. Avengers Infinity Defense will have guests join in battle across the multiverse alongside the Avengers to defeat King Thanos and recover stolen Stark technology. ©Disney We can’t wait to learn more about the upcoming lands, expansions, and attractions headed to the Disney parks!
